Is there such thing as a standard length axle made by lonestar, or RPM, I thought that I saw one that lonestar made that someone put on a 400ex. If this is true do they make one for a 250r. I tryed a 50 ft table top today and I came down on mostly on my back end so I trashed the stock axle:mad: , I'm starting to race in the Mid -South winter seires so I want to stay as narrow as posible. Thanks for any info.

I'm pretty dam sure you can get stock length LS and RPM axles...stop by and talk to jeff about one..:cool:

If your not wanting to be wider just go with another stocker..

The other day I stopped by The Quadshop before I bent the axle and I asked him about it, He wasn't for sure about lsr but he said that RPM makes one but its about $600. I do not want to go back to a stock axle because because of how crappy they are.

You catch a tree again at the right time and spot you'll bend a LS just as easy, same thing for a durablue. It's either stay with stocker and miss the trees or break out the big wallet and get a PRM.. Honestly those are your only 2 real options..

You and yoru pop gonna be at ironman??? If so stop by and say hi..

I don't know, we might go down to Alabama to Mid South, so I can work on more points.

I used to have a rpm -1 to + 1 axle. I'm sure they still make them. I cant belive rpm's axles have gotten that expensive when i bought my rpm +1 to +3 it was 385 with the race hub. I might be able to get the xc axle for that price if the guy i know still has a couple.
